"Alright, Mr. Wei, you two talk."
Wei Shan was speechless. What was there to talk about? Who wanted to talk to this bastard? If they kept talking, his underwear would be ripped off.
Qi Tongwei looked around Wei Shan's office, and the calligraphy "Heaven rewards diligence" stood out.
"Mr. Wei, you are a trendsetter of our time, I truly admire you."
Wei Shan had absolutely no idea what Qi Tongwei was thinking, and she didn't know when he would say something unpleasant.
"Prosecutor, if I had a secure government job, I wouldn't be risking my life to get out here."
Qi Tongwei picked up a Chanel magazine from the table and flipped through it casually. "It seems President Wei has big ambitions; he wants to build an international brand."
"Prosecutor, you've always said I'm a trendsetter of the times, so it's not surprising that I know a bit about foreign things."
Qi Tongwei put down the magazine and picked up another one from Shanghai.
"Mr. Wei, what's your relationship with Lu Peng like?"
Wei Shan was caught off guard by such a big leap.
"Prosecutor, my relationship with General Manager Lu is purely business-related, and we have a pretty good relationship."
"My intuition tells me that General Manager Wei has a very close relationship with Lu Peng."
Daquan really wanted to beat up Qi Tongwei, but Wei Shan waved her hand to stop him.
"Prosecutor, you solve cases based on evidence. Your intuition is hard to believe."
Qi Tongwei turned and approached Wei Shan. "I saw Lu Peng once outside the detention center. Lu Peng said there was no one in Jingzhou he couldn't touch. Arrogance brings trouble, and I think Lu Peng's troubles are not far off. I advise President Wei to stay away from Lu Peng."
"Thank you for your advice, Prosecutor. I, Wei Shan, believe that human will can overcome anything, and you can't scare me with just a few words."
Qi Tongwei smiled. "President Wei, behind every successful man is a woman, and conversely, behind every successful woman is a man. I'd very much like to meet the man behind President Wei."
Wei Shan couldn't quite keep up with this wildly imaginative way of thinking.
"Prosecutor, what exactly are you suspecting? To me, it's a murder case stemming from an extramarital affair."
"President Wei, I'll say it again: Lu Biao is just too ugly. How could a woman with a husband and children possibly be interested in him?"
Wei Shan was getting a little frantic. How could she not have noticed that Lu Biao was ugly? Wouldn't a tall and burly man make a woman feel safe?
"Prosecutor, what if Lu Biao is exceptionally talented in some areas?"
"His brother owns a nightclub; someone who indulges in drinking, gambling, and prostitution would have been completely ruined long ago. Absolutely not."
Daquan and the security guards wanted nothing more than to tear Qi Tongwei to pieces; this was a blatant humiliation, showing no regard for the deceased.
Wei Shan was also dumbfounded, not knowing what Qi Tongwei meant, and what the point of humiliating Lu Biao was to prove.
"Prosecutor, are you perhaps suspecting me of committing a crime?"
Qi Tongwei laughed and said, "Why would I suspect President Wei? It's more possible that your subordinates committed crimes, because they are extremely hostile towards me. I am a prosecutor who believes in fairness and justice in society, and their hostility towards me suggests they have something to hide."
Wei Shan didn't understand what was wrong with this logic for a moment, but this bastard hit the security guard as soon as he came in, and then said that the guard was ugly and looked like a bad guy, so it's not right for him to be hostile to you.
"Prosecutor, you are still young, which means you don't understand society very well. There are no absolutely bad or good people, only people with their own interests."
"I've learned a lot, Mr. Wei. I especially hope you are completely innocent, because you have the ambition to build an international brand. The country is vigorously developing its economy and desperately needs talent like you."
Wei Shan maintained her smile, saying, "I will certainly live up to the expectations of my prosecutor comrades."
"I had a very pleasant chat with Mr. Wei today, and I hope we'll have the opportunity to talk again next time."
"I welcome prosecutors at any time."
"With Mr. Wei's words, I won't need to call in next time."
Wei Shan really wanted to hit someone; "The prosecutor is so funny!"
Director Duan didn't get anything useful out of the female workers, but they all seemed to be hiding something.
After the prosecutors left, Wei Shan immediately called Lu Peng.
"President Lu, the prosecutor's office has come. That Qi Tongwei is difficult to deal with, but he seems to know something, or perhaps he's deliberately testing us. In any case, be careful lately."
Lu Peng took a puff of his cigar. "So, do you think we should kill him sooner rather than later?"
Wei Shan thought for a moment, "Taking him down will probably be difficult. He took down seven or eight security guards by himself today. The appointment of the provincial party secretary and the chief prosecutor to Handong is a very unusual signal. At this time, it's better to remain still than to make a move."
"I'll listen to you for now, but you have to keep a close eye on those female workers; they might be ticking time bombs."
"Don't worry about that, they all have their own weaknesses."
Jinhao Nightclub.
Lu Peng used the most luxurious private room to entertain Guo Anmin, the vice president of the Jingzhou Court, and Zheng Yonghang, the deputy director of the bureau. The two were Lu Peng's protectors.
Lu Peng has the powerful Elder Qiu behind him, which is why he dared to tell Qi Tongwei that there is no one in Jingzhou he cannot touch.
"Dean Guo, if my bald brother pleads guilty and accepts punishment, how many years will it take him to get out?"
Guo Anmin took a sip of foreign liquor. "At the fastest, one year; at the slowest, three years."
"Thank you, Dean Guo. I'm relieved to hear that. I'll toast you."
Lu Peng finished his drink in one go. "Director Zheng, is there no way to resolve Captain Yang's matter?"
Zheng Yonghang took a drag of his cigarette. "I'm definitely out of a job as the head of the criminal investigation team, but I'm not going to jail."
"It's good that he didn't go to jail. Captain Yang is out. Come to me, and I promise I'll treat him well."
Guo Anmin lit a cigarette. "Old Zheng, now that Zhang Zheng is the acting captain of the criminal investigation team, it might have an impact on you."
"Zhang Zheng has become much smarter now, and He Aijun values him highly, which has indeed made things much more difficult. But the most difficult thing is still the Provincial Procuratorate. Lu Peng, we must cut off the tail completely."
"Don't worry, Captain Zheng, I definitely won't cause you any trouble. Is that kid Qi Tongwei really one of Secretary Xu's men?"
Zheng Yonghang flicked his cigarette ash, "Nobody can say for sure right now."
Guo Anmin said angrily, "That Qi Tongwei is a real scoundrel. He threatened my wife in the hospital, saying he would investigate me for embezzlement and bribery. He scared my wife half to death."
"That kid loves to talk big and scare people. Yang Ming is a good-for-nothing too. He should have been shot dead when Qi Tongwei assaulted a police officer at Handong University of Political Science and Law."
Zheng Yonghang still harbors resentment towards Qi Tongwei for confronting him at the police station that day.
"Don't worry, gentlemen, I'll have someone teach that kid a lesson right away and calm you down."
"Lu Peng, quickly call the beauties over, let me calm down first," Guo Anmin said with a smile.
"Ah Bao, call all the ladies in."
"Okay, Brother Peng."
Poor Duan Xiaojun, this insignificant man's fate was decided amidst the laughter and toasts of the nightclub girls.
Even if it is proven that the police coerced a confession, Duan Xiaojun is still the prime suspect. No new evidence can be found to prove his innocence, and he will still face long-term detention.
As Qi Tongwei left the provincial procuratorate, he let out a long sigh. What kind of justice is justice that comes too late?
He mustered his spirits, temporarily forgetting his troubles, and rode his secondhand motorcycle to the fruit shop to buy grapes for Qin Xue.
Suddenly I realized, could it be that I have feelings for Qin Xue? Damn, what's wrong with a man having feelings for a beautiful woman?
Suddenly a motorcycle overtook him and reached for the girl's bag.
What are you doing?
Qi Tongwei roared angrily.
The motorcyclists were startled and lost their grip.
The girl was so frightened that she sat down on the ground with a thud.
In broad daylight, at the same location, they dare to rob again.
These biker gangs are absolutely outrageous and lawless.
"Damn it, stop right there!"
